PREFACE The book, Biomembrane Frontiers: Nanostructures, Models, and the Design of Life, a volume in the Handbook of Modern Biophysics series, is based on a workshop held on the 20th and 21st of March 2008 at the University of California Davis. Unlike other meeting monographs, the book presents the exciting frontiers of biomembrane research for both expert and student colleagues interested in research at the interface of biology and physics. The idea of the workshop originated from discussions about how to create an effective outreach for the NSF-NIRT joint project “Aerogel and Nanoporous Materials for Biomolecular Applications” between the L
